Banana Oatmeal Muffins (Vegan)

These recipe for Banana Oatmeal Muffins and Coconut Oil Giveaway are brought to by Barlean’s. I am compensated as a Barlean’s ambassador.

Muffins are a delicious way to start the day. Warm one up just a little and you get rewarded with a moist, warm bite of goodness that you can enjoy anywhere. These banana oatmeal muffins are definitely that! You can enjoy them for breakfast, brunch, brinner (breakfast + dinner), or as a snack. Muffins also make the perfect portable breakfast. Whether you are at home, camping, or traveling, these vegan banana muffins can be enjoyed anywhere you are.

Favorite Muffin?

How would you answer that question? Me? Hands down my favorite muffin is a banana nut muffin. I can’t say that there isn’t a banana nut bread or muffin I haven’t liked. I think the trick to making it great is really ripe bananas. When a banana gets all spotted and starts to turn brown, it’s ideal for banana muffins. Now this recipe doesn’t contain nuts, but you can easily add 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans to the recipe if you want them.

Vegan Banana Muffin

This month I am taking a food challenge that asks me to swap one meal a day for one that’s plant based. So I’m looking for ways to switch some of my favorite foods to make them vegan.

Barlean’s makes a great flaxseed, but I love baking with their Superfruit Seed Meal. It contains flax, coconut, strawberry, blueberry, and raspberry. It was a boost of Omega-3, fiber, and antioxidants. I combined this and applesauce in the muffin and them added a little extra for the muffin topping. So good!

Butter = coconut oil (equal amounts)

Barleans makes a culinary coconut oil that has a lighter coconut flavor than traditional coconut oil. It works really well when baking. I like that it allows the other flavors to come through without being too coconutty (if that isn’t a word, it should be).

So those are the two changes I made to make these banana oatmeal muffins vegan. Try them for yourself.

Banana nut is about my fave too Nicky. Glorious, just glorious. I noted to my wife when reading this post how vegan desserts seem the best on earth to me. No joke. The quality of ingredients and vegan nature create tasty and incredibly filling deals. Thanks for the rocking recipe buddy.
